May I say that this post is also an oblique celebration of the US launch (last night) of UK series The Office, which subjects office life to a series of Brechtian and non-Brechtian alienation devices.
The success of the series in the US will depend, I think, on the willingness of Americans to see offices -- and employee photos -- as something very odd indeed.

The best website on the Net dedicated to the Ring series is J Lopez's fabulous Ringworld, based at http://www.theringworld.com, where you'll find all manner of reviews, plot discussions, timelines, pictures, fan-art, wallpapers, downloads and also the amazing Ring Forum community.
Somewhat unsurprisingly, a prequel was made in 2000, Ring 0:Birthday, this time directed by Norio Tsuruta, which provided a fitting and satisfying end to the series, a film which finally explained nearly all of the Sadako mysteries and chose a more dramatic than horrific style.
